Foreshadowing: The Championship

Predict what will happen during the championship game with this worksheet all about foreshadowing! To begin, students will review the definition of foreshadowing and read examples of how irony, dialogue, and symbolism can be used to hint at future events. Then, learners must read a passage about the morning before a championship game. Students will then apply what they know about foreshadowing to predict what happens next, provide textual evidence, and explain what foreshadowing device was used.

This worksheet helps sixth, seventh, and eighth graders recognize examples of foreshadowing. As learners delve into longer texts, identifying literary devices can strengthen readers’ understanding of a text and encourage further analysis. Students can even use these devices in their own writing to keep readers engaged and add depth.
